The present case claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/381,308 filed on 9 Sep. 2010, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
The technical field relates generally to curtains and to methods of hanging curtains.
Curtains are commonly used in homes and in many other places. They are generally provided to cover all or part of a window in a decorative manner. Most curtains can be opened or closed as required. To do so, a person can pull or push the curtain by hand so as to move at least a portion thereof along a pole or a track. Alternatively, a track mechanism can be operated to open or close the curtain, involving for instance a cord to be pulled by the person.
Some curtains are made of a material that can be more difficult to manipulate than others using conventional arrangements. An example is a semi-rigid panel, such as a panel including vertical bamboo strips connected to one another. Other kinds of materials can be similarly difficult to manipulate. One common way of hanging such curtains is to use spaced-apart eyelets provided at their respective upper edge. These eyelets are then inserted over a corresponding horizontal pole. Such arrangement, however, have limitations. For instance, it does not allow the panel to be flat when fully extended and the eyelets tend to remain stuck in certain positions, thereby sometimes making the panel difficult to manipulate. Other arrangements involve the use of a track mechanism. Such arrangements, however, increase the cost and complexity of the installation. Room for improvements thus always exists in this area.
In one aspect, there is provided a curtain hung under a horizontal pole. The curtain includes a foldable panel having an upper edge and two opposite side edges. The foldable panel is reversibly moveable between an extended flat position and a fully folded position upon moving the opposite side edges relative to one another. The panel forms a plurality of juxtaposed sections separated by vertical pleats when the panel is folded. The curtain also includes a plurality of spaced-apart ribbons. Each ribbon has opposite ends connected to the upper edge of the panel and forms a loop. The ribbons extend above the upper edge of the panel when the curtain is hung under the horizontal pole. The curtain further includes a plurality of rigid connectors to be loosely inserted over the horizontal pole. Each connector is inserted through the loop formed by a corresponding one of the ribbons.
In another aspect, there is provided a method of hanging a curtain. The method includes: attaching a plurality of spaced-apart ribbons to an upper edge of a foldable panel, each ribbon forming a loop; attaching a plurality of rigid connectors to the loops formed by the ribbons; inserting the connectors over an horizontal pole so that the panel be suspended by gravity underneath the pole; and once the panel is suspended, moving the panel freely between an extended flat position and a fully folded position upon moving opposite side edges of the panel relative to one another, the panel forming a plurality of juxtaposed sections separated by vertical pleats when the panel is folded.
Further details on these aspects as well as other aspects of the proposed concept will be apparent from the following detailed description and the appended figures.
FIG. 1 is a front isometric view illustrating an example of a curtain incorporating the proposed concept;
FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of the curtain shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a left side view of the curtain shown in FIG. 1; and
FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 1, showing the curtain panel in a partially folded position.
FIG. 1 is a front view illustrating an example of a curtain 10 incorporating the proposed concept. The curtain 10 is shown in a fully extended position in FIG. 1. This curtain 10 is designed to be hung under a horizontal pole, such as the pole 12 shown in the figures. The exact length and height of the curtain 10 can vary greatly from one installation to another. For this reason, the curtain 10 is illustrated has having an indefinite length and height. The illustrated pole 12 has a substantially circular cross section and a continuous unobstructed surface.
The curtain 10 includes a foldable panel 14. The panel 14 has an upper edge 14a and two opposite side edges 14b, 14c. The panel 14 can be made of a soft or a semi-rigid material, depending on the requirements. For instance, it can be made of one or more pieces of fabric. An example of a semi-rigid material is one including a plurality of vertically-extending and juxtaposed bamboo strips 16 connected to one another, as illustrated in FIG. 1. Other materials are possible as well.
The panel 14 is reversibly moveable between an extended flat position, such as in FIG. 1, and a fully folded position upon moving the opposite side edges 14b, 14c relative to one another. The panel 14 is said to be in a partially folded position when set in-between the extended flat position and the fully folded position. When folded, as shown in FIG. 4, the panel 14 forms a plurality of juxtaposed sections 20 separated by vertical pleats 22. FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 1, showing the curtain panel 14 in a partially folded position.
In the illustrated example, the upper edge 14a of the panel 14 includes a tape 30 extending continuously between the opposite side edges 14b, 14c. Other arrangements and configurations are possible.
The curtain 10 includes a plurality of spaced-apart ribbons 40. Each ribbon 40 has opposite ends connected to the upper edge 14a of the panel 14 and form a loop. For instance, the ribbons 40 can be stitched to the upper edge 14a. The ribbons 40 extend above the upper edge 14 when the curtain 10 is hung under the horizontal pole 12. Each ribbon 40 can be made a woven material but other material are also possible as well.
In the illustrated example, the opposite ends of each ribbon 40 are connected at a different position along the upper edge 14a and the ends of the ribbons 40 extend substantially parallel to the upper edge 14a. This way, each ribbon 40 forms an inverted "V" when viewed from the front or the rear, as shown for instance in FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of the curtain 10 shown in FIG. 1.
There is at least one ribbon 40 for each section 20 of the panel 14. The corresponding ribbon 40 is substantially centered with reference to an upper end of the section 20. Other configurations and arrangements are possible.
The curtain 10 includes a plurality of rigid connectors 50 to be loosely inserted over the horizontal pole 12. Each connector 50 is inserted through the loop formed by a corresponding one of the ribbons 40. In the illustrated example, each connector 50 includes a ring shaped main portion. The ring-shaped main portions of the connectors 50 are inserted through the loops formed by the ribbons 40.
FIG. 3 is a left side view of the curtain 10 shown in FIG. 1.
The present detailed description and the appended figures are meant to be exemplary only, and a skilled person will recognize that many changes can be made while still remaining within the proposed concept. For instance, the materials that can be used are necessarily limited to these specifically mentioned in the present description. More than one ribbon can be used for each section of the panel and more than one rigid connector can be used with each loop. Stitching is only one possible way of connecting the ribbons to the upper edge of the panel. The ends of one or more ribbons can be overlapped, at least in part. Different kinds of ribbons can be used on a same panel. The rigid connectors can have non-circular shapes and need not to be all identical. The pole for use with the curtain is not necessarily rectilinear, other shapes and configuration being possible. Still, many other variants of the proposed concept will be apparent to a skilled person, in light of a review of the present disclosure.

Heneage Finch, 1st Earl of Nottingham
Heneage Finch, 1st Earl of Nottingham, PC (23 December 1621 – 1682), Lord Chancellor of England, was descended from the old family of Finch, many of whose members had attained high legal eminence, and was the eldest son of Sir Heneage Finch, Recorder of London, by his first wife Frances Bell, daughter of Sir Edmond Bell of Beaupre Hall, Norfolk.
Early career[edit]
In the register of Oxford University he is entered as born in Kent, and probably his native place was Eastwell in that county. He was educated at Westminster and at Christ Church, Oxford, where he remained until he became a member of the Inner Temple in 1638. He was called to the bar in 1645, and soon obtained a lucrative practice.
He married Elizabeth Harvey, daughter of William Harvey, 30 July 1646 and they had three children[1] In April 1660, he was elected Member of Parliament for Canterbury and Mitchell in the Convention Parliament and chose to sit for Canterbury.[2] Shortly afterwards was appointed Solicitor General, being created a baronet the day after he was knighted. In May 1661 he was elected MP for Oxford University in the Cavalier Parliament.[2] In 1665 the university created him a D.C.L. In 1670 he became Attorney General, and in 1675 Lord Chancellor. He was created Baron Finch in January 1673 and Earl of Nottingham in May 1681.
Popish Plot[edit]
During the Popish Plot, he played an active part in the interrogation of witnesses and preparation of the Crown's evidence. He is said to have been somewhat sceptical about much of the evidence, and drew up a private report referring to the difficulties with Titus Oates' evidence.[3] In general he behaved with moderation and restraint during the Plot, as shown most notably in his impartial conduct, as Lord High Steward, of the trial of William Howard, 1st Viscount Stafford, (apart from a curious remark that it was now clear that the Great Fire of London was a Catholic conspiracy).[4] Kenyon notes that during the examination of the informer Miles Prance, Finch threatened him with the rack;[5] but such a lapse was most uncharacteristic in a humane and civilised man; in any case the threat could hardly have been serious since the rack had been declared illegal in 1628.
Finch and Nottingham House, now Kensington Palace[edit]
The original early 17th-century building was constructed in the village of Kensington as Nottingham House for the Earl of Nottingham. It was acquired from his heir, who was Secretary of State to William III, in 1689, because the King wanted a residence near London but away from the smoky air of the capital, because he was asthmatic. At that time Kensington was a suburban village location outside London, but more accessible than Hampton Court, a water journey on the Thames. A private road was laid out from the Palace to Hyde Park Corner, broad enough for several carriages to travel abreast, part of which survives today as Rotten Row. The Palace was improved and extended by Sir Christopher Wren with pavilions attached to each corner of the central block, for it now needed paired Royal Apartments approached by the Great Stairs, a council chamber, and the Chapel Royal. Then, when Wren re-oriented the house to face west, he built north and south wings to flank the approach, made into a proper cour d'honneur that was entered through an archway surmounted by a clock tower. Nevertheless, as a private domestic retreat, it was referred to as Kensington House, rather than 'Palace'. The walled kitchen gardens at Kensington House supplied fruits and vegetables for the Court of St. James's.
He died in Great Queen Street, London one year later, and was buried in the church of Ravenstone in Buckinghamshire. His son Daniel inherited his earldom, and would later also inherit the Earldom of Winchelsea. His younger son Heneage Finch, 1st Earl of Aylesford, also had a distinguished career as a lawyer and politician and was Solicitor General 1679-86. His daughter Elizabeth married Sir Samuel Grimston, 3rd Baronet.
His contemporaries of both sides of politics agree in their high estimate of his integrity, moderation and eloquence, while his abilities as a lawyer are sufficiently attested by the fact that he is still spoken of as the father of equity. His most important contribution to the statute book is The Statute of Frauds. While attorney-general he superintended the edition of Sir Henry Hobart's Reports (1671). He also published Several Speeches and Discourses in the Tryal of the Judges of King Charles 1. (1660); Speeches to both Houses of Parliament (1679); Speech at the Sentence of Viscount Stafford (1680). He left Chancery Reports in MS., and notes on Coke's Institutes.

Designer Paula Scher Weighs In On The Jane Austen Banknote
Is the design of the U.K.'s forthcoming—and loaded—Jane Austen note a pound wise or foolish?
We tend not to think much about what our money looks like, but lots of us probably see the dead-president faces on our bills more often than, say, the faces of our mothers. The media frenzy surrounding England's forthcoming Jane Austen 10-pound note has mainly focused on the successful grassroots campaign that persuaded the bank to replace Charles Darwin's portrait with that of a female writer—and the disturbing hate-tweets that followed.
But what of the actual design of the banknote?
Co.Design spoke with Pentagram partner Paula Scher—the graphic designer behind plenty of iconic book jackets and the identities of everything from world-finance giants like Citibank to cultural leaders like The Public Theater—about the design of the controversial tenner.
"I am delighted that the British Government is putting Jane Austen on their paper money," said Scher. "No one wrote better about women and money."
The design of British paper currency in general, however, offers no such clear consensus. Its many, many visual and security elements, all packed into a few inches, include metallic thread, raised print, watermarks, an ultraviolet feature, microlettering, and holograms.
In other words, the brief is a graphic designer's nightmare. But Scher thinks it may have ultimately benefited the bill's designer, who had to embrace the mess: "I am suspicious about money that looks too well designed. It always looks a bit counterfeit to me," she says. "I also don't trust well designed wine labels for more or less the same reason. It's often the lousiest wine. So I would frame my judgement in this way: Is the paper money believable? I think the answer is yes."
On what will become one of the most ubiquitous images in British daily life, a sepia-toned Austen wears a jaunty bonnet and ruffled collar in an illustration adapted from a sketch by her sister Cassandra. "Austen's portrait seems appropriately complicated, meaning finely engraved with the correct use of all the bells and whistles," says Scher. The author's likeness alone has been the subject of endless forensic team-fueled controversy, as Cassandra's is one of just two confirmed portraits of her. "Since we don't really know what Austen looked like," Scher reasons, "her portrait doesn't seem pretentious or laughable like, say, an elaborate engraving of Sir Paul McCartney or Sir Richard Branson might."
In the background, in faint green, Austen presides goddess-like above an image of Godmersham Park, which inspired many of her novels. "The smaller image of Jane writing at her desk seems a little superfluous," says Scher. "I suppose it could be argued that some people may not know that she was an author and assume that she was either royalty or a politician. But I personally would prefer the note without the second illustration."
Were it up to her, Scher would also improve on the "weak" typography, incorporating the quote ("I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading!") more artfully into the image. Jane's graphic will replace a beetle-browed, bearded Darwin and his hummingbird among yellow flowers.
"The design of contemporary money is not the design of cash. Contemporary money is electronic and demands simplicity," Scher says. "Cash is an antique and new cash is like antique reproduction."
While she endorses the choice of Austen as the face immortalized on the antiques, she says, "My hope is that in the future all money will derive from our fingerprints. We all have 10 digits. It would be easy." A great idea, but how would a designer leave room for the bonnet?

Lynn Henning of the Detroit News guesses
that the Tigers will offer arbitration to Fernando Rodney, Brandon Lyon
and even Placido Polanco before Tuesday's deadline.
While Rodney and Lyon — both Type B free agents — are risks Dave
Dombrowski can afford on the off-chance they return, Polanco — a Type
A free agent — simply isn't.
Polanco, 34, batted .285/.331/.396
with 10 home runs and 72 RBI in 2009, winning his second Gold Glove
earlier this month. He made $4.6 million last season and figures to
make somewhere between $6-7 million this winter.
If the Tigers offer Polanco
arbitration, a team would have to surrender two draft picks in order to
sign him. This may severely limit Polanco's list of potential suitors
enough to paint general manager Dave Dombrowski into a corner for another year. Not the
best idea with the team trying to show restraint with their payroll. The
Tigers already have 24-year-old prospect Scott Sizemore ready to take the
starting second base job in 2010, so while the two draft picks are
enticing, it just wouldn't be very wise.
Expect the Tigers to let him walk on Tuesday.
- notsodumbbrowski - Nov 28, 2009 at 1:57 PM
Salaries granted through the arbitration process are non-guaranteed though, so the Tigers may offer it to him to provide some insurance in case Sizemore's return from his broken ankle doesn't go as planned. If he's ready though they can release Polanco during spring training and only owe him a prorated portion of his salary.

The point of offering him arbitration is to get draft choices for him when he signs elsewhere. If they offer, they better be pretty sure that he won't accept. Even in the back-up plan that notsodumbbrowski describes, Polanco accepting would cost the team approximately $1M (1/6 of the $6M that he'd likely receive in arb) and they'd lose him to free agency without getting the draft choices.

I'd also be concerned about Lyon accepting. Following last season where he made $4.25M and posted a nice ERA (2.86 vs. 4.20 for his career) and knowing that ERA is a key stat in the arbitration process, the Tigers could end up paying $5M plus for a set-up reliever with a career 4.20 ERA who's .229 BABIP last year is probably not sustainable.
I think that this offseason, we are going to see the agents turn the tables on the owners – having learned from the Juan Cruz situation last year – and accept arbitration for a lot of players who might take pay cuts or not get raises in free agency. Brandon Lyon is one of those examples. This guy looks to be worth $5M to $6M for 2 years in free agency, but maybe $5M plus for 1 year in arbitration.

Zinc fortification of whole rice grain through parboiling processProm-u-thai, Chanakan and Rerkasem, Benjavan and Çakmak, İsmail and Huang, Longbin (2010) Zinc fortification of whole rice grain through parboiling process. Food Chemistry, 120 (3). pp. 858-863. ISSN 0308-8146 This is the latest version of this item. Full text not available from this repository. Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2009.11.027 AbstractThe present study evaluated the effectiveness of zinc (Zn) fortification in a parboiling process for improving Zn density in parboiled-polished rice and its potential bioravailability in the human diet. Fortification of Zn in whole paddy rice grain with 50-400 mg Zn/kg paddy rice, during parboiling, increased Zn concentrations in polished-parboiled rice from 1.3 to 4.5 times those in unfortified parboiled rice. The added Zn rapidly penetrated into parboiled rice grains in the initial soaking process before saturation. There was an exponential correlation between Zn concentrations in unpolished (r = 0.63) (p < 0.01) and polished rice (r = 0.30) (p < 0.05) and soaking time. Zinc concentrations in unpolished rice were linearly correlated with Zn concentration in the polished rice (r = 0.60) (p < 0.01). Moreover, more than half of the added Zn is retained after a simulated washing process before cooking, ranging from 64-100%. In the Zn-fortified parboiled rice, 57-100% of Zn in polished rice grain was soluble in dilute acid, which was indicative of a high potential Zn bioavailability for human intake. The results suggest that parboiled rice has great potential for Zn fortification.

Planetary science group hosts Cassini CAPS Team Meeting 43
31 May 2012
On Thursday 31 May and Friday 1 June the Planetary science group is hosting the 43rd meeting of the Cassini Plasma Spectrometer (CAPS) team.
The meeting has a full programme, with planetary group scientists Andrew Coates giving presentations on Titan and Encealdus, Annie Wellbrock on Titan, Gethyn Lewis and Lin Gilbert on instrument operations, Chris Arridge on instrument operations and a survey of electrons in Saturn's magnetosphere, Geraint Jones on comet 153P/Ikeya-Zhang and negatively-charged particles near Enceladus, and Jamie Jasinski on Saturn's magetospheric cusps.
This is the first Cassini CAPS team meeting since the instrument was successfully turned on again on 18 March, after a data gap since July 2011 caused by an investigation of a spacecraft issue.

A top New York State Senator admits that lawmakers are not doing enough to attract the video game and tech industries to the Empire State, but will make it his top priority in 2015. New York State Senator Martin Golden (R-Brooklyn) believes other states and parts of Canada are beating New York State in attracting gaming and biotech companies.
This week the NYU Game Center has launched its free online archive of Game Center Lectures with recordings of all talks to date. The NYU Game Center has been hosting lectures from video game industry professionals since 2009. The archives offer past lectures from such notable developers as Tim Schafer, Heather Kelley and Jonathan Blow - just to name a few.
The NYU Game Center announced the launch of the archives today on Twitter:
In July we reported on MineORama, a Minecraft fan gathering in New York City that was canceled at the last minute. While organizers insisted that the event was not a scam and that it would be rescheduled, organizers are showing their true colors by shutting down their Twitter account and their official website at www.mineorama.com. And while their Facebook page is still live, organizers have not made an update since early July.
Next week New York State lawmakers will host a second event at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) to explore video game development as an economic engine for the state. New York State Republican Sen. Martin Golden will be holding a second roundtable of the Senate Select Committee on Science, Technology, Incubation and Entrepreneurship, which he chairs, at RIT on Oct. 22. Golden held the first session in September at Polytechnic Institute of New York University.
A new video detailing the National Security Agency's (NSA) broad spying programs on Americans will be on display tonight at 9:00 PM ET in Manhattan, projected onto a building for everyone to see. Internet freedom groups Fight for the Future and Demand Progress have teamed up with Golden Globe nominee Evangeline Lilly (Lost, The Hobbit) to produce a 5-minute crowd funded video that explains the NSA's surveillance programs and calls for an end to them.
The U.S. Supreme Court is considering a review of the 677 New Loudon Corp. v. State of New York Tax Tribunal, following a decision from the New York Supreme Court that the state government may tax exotic dancing but not other forms of dancing. Free speech advocacy group Media Coalition thinks that if the Supreme Court were to review this decision, it would likely overturn it because it violates the First Amendment. The group recently filed an amicus brief with the court urging it to review the case.
S.O.S. Gamers has launched a crowd-funding campaign for Get Schooled, an initiative that supplies underprivileged schools and community centers in the New York City area with access to educational technology including computers, calculators, and recreational items such as video game consoles and games.
Sony announced that it plans to sell its U.S. headquarters, a 37-story building located on Madison Avenue in New York City. The PS Vita and PlayStation 3 maker will gain an estimated $1.1 billion from the sale. The buyer is a real estate consortium headed by The Chetrit Group. Sony expects that the transaction will close in March 2013. After paying back debt related to the building, Sony plans to pocket around $770 million from the sale.
New York Senator Charles Schumer and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg criticized the National Rifle Association for releasing its iOS shooting range simulation app NRA Practice Range on the one month anniversary of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown Connecticut. Pressure from politicians around the country ultimately forced Apple to change the rating from age 4+ to a rating of 12+. Schumer had called for a rating of 17+.
New York State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman issued a press release today announcing that five additional companies including Gaia Online, NCsoft, Funcom, THQ, and one company that was not disclosed at press time, have agreed to participate in Operation: Game Over, an initiative to identify and remove registered sex offenders that live in New York state. These companies join Microsoft, Apple, Blizzard Entertainment, Electronic Arts, Disney Interactive Media Group, Warner Brothers and Sony.

What a difference a few days makes for a politician with an "unconventional" idea. After getting a little pushback from constituents, New York State Assemblyman Dean Murray (R) issued a statement trying to clarify the intended purpose of his billing to deal with anonymous Internet comments. One could categorize his statement as more of a walk back than a clarification...
A New York State Assemblymen wants to fight cyberbullying and "baseless political attacks" with a new bill that would ban anonymous web posts. The bill would make it so that all New York-based websites have to "remove any comments posted on his or her website by an anonymous poster unless such anonymous poster agrees to attach his or her name to the post," according to Wired's Threat Level.
We thought that a Manhattan judge had already green lighted a lawsuit filed by game developer Gate Five to sue pop icon Beyonce for $100 million way back in December of 2011, but a new New York Post story about the lawsuit says that Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Charles Ramos has ruled that the singer will have to face the "breach of contract" lawsuit filed by the company sometime this summe
A man from Greece, New York (a suburb of Rochester) has been sentenced to six months in jail, ten years of probation and registration as a sex offender in New York State. Twenty-year-old Richard "Ricky" Kretovic pled guilty to the crime of Criminal Sexual Act in March of this year as part of a plea deal and on Friday Monroe County Court Judge Victoria Argento delivered his sentence.
In March of last year the state of Illinois decided to pass a law that collected Internet sales tax from online companies like Amazon.com and eBay. Commonly referred to as an "affiliate nexus tax," the law passed by Illinois and other states including California, Connecticut, and New York, required online retailers who advertised on "affiliate sites" that had a physical presence in the same state to collect sales tax. The Illinois law had broad support among lawmakers and the state's governor, Gov. Pat Quinn (D).
More than 100 elementary and middle school students from New York City and around the country will compete using DimensionU video game software on May 21. Students tackle fast-paced math problems over several stages in order to advance and win $60,000 in scholarship funds.
The U Games National Scholarship Tournament brings together more than 100 students who were smart enough to secure a spot in the final national competition after participating in one of 12 qualifying rounds that ran from November - April.
Using the DimensionU Games for math, the tournament is hosted by the game's developer Tabula Digita in partnership with Intel and Dell. The tournament finals will be held Saturday, May 21 at Hunter College in New York City.
This Thursday at the New York University Game Center, the No Quarter Exhibition of Games returns for its second year to debut some brand new independent games and offer some other interesting surprises. At last year's event, Mark "Messhof" Essen unveiled his dueling game Nidhogg. It went on to win an Independent Games Festival award.
This Thursday No Quarter will feature games from VVVVVV creator Terry Cavanagh, Ramiro Corbett (worked on Glow Artisan while at Powerhead), and game designer Charley Miller.
This year's No Quarter will also see the debut of NYC Winnitron, a free-to-play custom arcade cabinet featuring independent games. It was apparently modeled after the Torontron/Winnitron machines that are used on the indie scenes in Toronto and Winnipeg.
No Quarter begins on May 12 at 7 PM with an opening party. The event runs until the end of the month. For more information, visit http://gamecenter.nyu.edu/.
According to this Bloomberg report, the New York State Attorney General has subpoenaed Sony over its ongoing security breach. Citing sources close to the situation, Bloomberg reports that New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is seeking further information on the security breach of Sony's PlayStation Network and Sony Online Entertainment.
Specifically his department is taking a closer look at what Sony told customers about the security of its networks and when it told customers. The probe is supposedly part of a "consumer protection inquiry," according to the Bloomberg report.
From the report:
During the run up to yesterday's mid-term election, we profiled a few politicians that used web-based games or videogame-related images in order to either slam their opponent, or drum up interest in their own campaign. In some cases the games were even created by third parties not affiliated with either side in a race. Let's check-in and see how these candidates did in yesterday's elections.
Putting aside garbage-scented political flyers, at least for the time being, New York Republican Gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino has invoked a world-famous videogame character for his latest attack on Democratic opponent Andrew Cuomo.
The latest flyer features Cuomo's face on a caricature of Mario under the headline "Andrew Has Been Playing the Albany Game for 30 Years."
Another recent flyer pictured Cuomo in the shower, with the text "Clean up Albany? Start with Cuomo."
Just last month Paladino spokesman Mike Caputo promised, "We're going to continue beating on Andrew Cuomo until he comes out and answers questions and agrees to a series of debates."
For more on Paladino be sure to check out this Gawker tag, which assembles all of the site's gleeful coverage of the candidate's missteps to-date.
The NYU Game Center had added Game Designer Eric Zimmerman (pictured) to its ranks as Visiting Assistant Art Professor.
Zimmerman is co-author, with Katie Salen, of the game design book Rules of Play and was a co-founder of Gamelab, which created a range of games including Diner Dash. Zimmerman has already helped to plan the curriculum for the GameCenter over the past year and will teach Introduction to Game Design and Advanced Game Design courses at the school.
NYU Game Center Interim Chair Frank Lantz said of Zimmerman's appointment, "His addition on a full-time basis is an indication of the Game Center's commitment to bringing together the most important and influential scholars and designers in the field in order to build a world-class program in game design."
The NYU Game Center was started in 2008 and is described as "an independent, multi-school center for the research, design and development of digital games."
The sleepy hamlet of Beacon, located in upstate New York, is not a fan of pinball machines.
A CNN story details the problems a local man had after opening a retro arcade museum in the town. After 18 months of operation, Fred Bobrow was forced to shutter his operation because of an "arcane" law in town that bans pinball machines within the city limits.
George Mansfield, a member of Beacon's City Council explained how the law may have come about:
Arcades in the '70s may have represented something, you know, maybe, that a community wouldn't want on their main street, or that it would attract a bad, you know, kids or whatever.
While the town, reportedly, is looking into reversing the ban, the City Council is moving very slowly and any changes will not be enacted in time to benefit Bobrow. Beacon Mayor Steve Gold stated, "Uh, the legislative process really does take its time and council's really looked very closely at all of the letters of the law, and look ahead to the future."

The number of cyber attacks targeting US organisations has doubled over the past three years, leading to hefty losses, a study released Monday showed.
The study conducted by the Ponemon Institute and sponsored by Hewlett-Packard said most of the attacks involve malicious code, denial of service, stolen or hijacked devices, or "malevolent insiders".
"The occurrence of cyber attacks has more than doubled over a three-year period, while the financial impact has increased by nearly 40 per cent," the report said.
The 2012 study showed organisations experiencing an average of 102 successful attacks per week, compared to 72 attacks per week in 2011 and 50 attacks per week in 2010.
Among the organisations surveyed which were hit by successful cyber attacks, the average losses was $US8.9 million ($A8.80 million), up six per cent from 2011 and 38 per cent increase over 2010.
"Organisations are spending increasing amounts of time, money and energy responding to cyber attacks at levels that will soon become unsustainable," said HP's Michael Callahan.
Information theft accounts for 44 per cent of losses, while lost productivity accounted for 30 per cent.
The average time to resolve a cyber attack is 24 days, but it can take up to 50 days, according to the new study.

The NBC rerun of this episode removes the first "FOX's Who Farted?" sketch and fills up the missing time with the lengthier dress rehearsal version of Weekend Update.
Sketches/segments not shown in the E! rerun: "The X-Presidents" (cartoon), "Profiles in Jazz," "I'm A Celebrity- Who Farted?, Horatio Sanz's Tribute To Mr. Rogers, "Walgreens," and "Where Are They Now?."
Tom Kenny (the voice of Spongebob Squarepants) appears on TV Funhouse providing the voice of Spongebob. However, the voice of Blossom (from The Powerpuff Girls) was done by Amy Poehler instead of Cathy Cavadini (the real voice of Blossom).
The E! rerun of this episode has the first "Fox's 'Who Farted?'" fake promo, but not the celebrity edition.
The April 26, 2003 repeat of this episode featured extended versions of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Dustin Hoffman, and Trevor the Broadway Guy's commentaries on "Weekend Update" with dress rehearsal footage added, probably to fill in time for cutting "Who Farted?"
Dan Aykroyd makes his tenth cameo after leaving the show in 1979, as Bob Dole debating with Bill Clinton on "60 Minutes".
The Bugs Bunny cartoon shown during TV Funhouse in this episode shows Bugs tricking a Japanese soldier into brushing his teeth with a missile is based on an actual Warner Brothers cartoon short called "Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips". The scene shown here wasn't in the actual cartoon, but Bugs did call some Japanese soldiers "bowlegs".

Feds Urge States To Ban Texting, Talking On Roads
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ren Bishop is one of many American drivers who texts, tweets and talks on her cellphone while she's behind the wheel — and thinks it should be up to drivers to use their discretion when it comes to safety.
Though she admits thumbing her phone while driving is bad habit, the University of Missouri student says drivers "are mature enough to understand when it is appropriate and when it is not."
The National Transportation Safety Board disagrees, and it declared Tuesday that texting, emailing or chatting while driving is simply too dangerous to be allowed anywhere in the United States.
The board is urging all states to impose total bans except for emergencies following recent deadly crashes, including one in Missouri after a teenager sent or received 11 text messages within 11 minutes.
The unanimous recommendation from the five-member board would apply even to hands-free devices, a much stricter rule than any current state law.
NTSB chairwoman Deborah Hersman acknowledged that complying would involve changing what has become ingrained behavior for many Americans.
"We're not here to win a popularity contest," she said. "No email, no text, no update, no call is worth a human life."
Currently, 35 states and the District of Columbia ban texting while driving, while nine states and Washington, D.C., bar hand-held cellphone use. Thirty states ban all cellphone use for beginning drivers. But enforcement is generally not a high priority, and no states ban the use of hands-free devices for all drivers.
The immediate impetus for the NTSB's recommendation was last year's deadly pileup near Gray Summit, Mo., involving a 19-year-old pickup driver.
The board said the initial collision was caused by the teen's inattention while texting a friend about events of the previous night. The pickup, traveling 55 mph, hit the back of a tractor truck that had slowed for highway construction. The pickup was rear-ended by a school bus, and a second school bus rammed into the back of the first bus.
The pickup driver and a 15-year-old student on one of the buses were killed. Thirty-eight other people were injured.
In Missouri, texting is illegal for drivers 21 and under, which means the law would have applied to the 19-year-old. But the ban isn't aggressively enforced, NTSB member Robert Sumwalt said.
"Without the enforcement, the laws don't mean a whole lot," he said.
The law didn't apply to 22-year-old Bishop when she was pulled over Monday night for swerving while texting on the University of Missouri campus.
She blames a late night and schoolwork. The officer who stopped her told her to put her phone in the back seat and sent her home with a warning.
"I definitely have the bad habit of tweeting and driving, texting and driving, and updating my Facebook status," Bishop said. "I probably shouldn't but the technology makes it too easy."
About two out of 10 American drivers overall — and half of drivers between 21 and 24 — say they've thumbed messages or emailed from the driver's seat, according to a survey of more than 6,000 drivers by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
At any given moment last year on America's streets and highways, nearly one in every 100 car drivers was texting, emailing, surfing the Web or otherwise using a hand-held electronic device, the safety administration said. Those activities were up 50 percent over the previous year.
NTSB investigators said they are seeing increasing texting, cellphone calls and other distracting behavior by drivers in accidents involving all kinds of transportation. It has become routine to immediately request the preservation of cellphone and texting records when an investigation begins.
In the past few years, the board has investigated a train collision in which the engineer was texting that killed 25 people in Chatsworth, Calif., a fatal accident near Philadelphia in which a tugboat pilot was talking on his cellphone and using a laptop computer, and a Northwest Airlines flight that sped more than 100 miles past its destination because both pilots were working on their laptops.
Last year, a driver was dialing his cellphone when his truck crossed a highway median near Munfordville, Ky., and collided with a 15-passenger van. Eleven people were killed.
While the NTSB doesn't have the power to impose restrictions, its recommendations carry significant weight with federal regulators, Congress and state lawmakers. But the board's decision to include hands-free cellphone use in its recommendation is likely to prove especially controversial.
No states currently ban hand-free use, although many studies show that it is often as unsafe as hand-held phone use because drivers' minds are on their conversations rather than what's happening on the road.
Bike messenger Jesus Santa Rosa, 24, says he's seen a lot of accidents that are caused by people using their cellphones while he maneuvers through the streets of downtown Los Angeles.
"I've seen people taking red lights while they're looking down at their cellphones," said Santa Rosa. "And a lot of people get hit — bike messengers, pedestrians."
Santa Rosa says he was sideswiped by a woman who was exiting the freeway and charging onto downtown's surface streets at a high speed.
"This girl, when she stopped after she hit me, she was still talking on the phone as she got out of the car, like, telling someone she almost just killed someone," Santa Rosa said.
Still, he said a ban on hands-free devices would probably be going too far because "texting is more dangerous. They're not looking up."
Another NTSB recommendation Tuesday urges states to aggressively enforce current bans on text messaging and the use of cellphones and other portable electronic devices while driving.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported earlier this year that pilot projects in Syracuse, N.Y., and Hartford, Conn., produced significant reductions in distracted driving by combining stepped-up ticketing with high-profile public education campaigns.
Miami computer salesman Cully Waggoner, 50, agreed that texting is a danger to drivers but said enforcing bans is difficult. What may be more effective is harnessing technology to make technology safer, he said.
Perhaps phone manufacturers can be required to equip phones with a technology that disables texting and data packages if the phone is moving over a certain speed, Waggoner said.
"That would be the only way to get around to fixing anything: Go right to the technology that's being used," Waggoner said. Otherwise, "there's all kinds of laws on the books that people break every day, this would just be another one."

Vilma Bánky | |
Vilma Bánky in 1927
Born | Vilma Koncsics January 9, 1901 Nagydorog, Tolna County, Austria-Hungary (present-day Nagydorog, Republic of Hungary) |
Died | March 18, 1991 Los Angeles, California, U.S. |
(aged 90)
Occupation | Actress |
Years active | 1919–1933 |
Spouse(s) | Rod La Rocque (m. 1927–69) (his death) |
Vilma Bánky (9 January 1901 – 18 March 1991) was a Hungarian-born American silent film actress, although the early part of her acting career began in Budapest, spreading to France, Austria, and Germany. Banky was best known for her roles in The Eagle and The Son of the Sheik with Rudolph Valentino and several romantic teamings with Ronald Colman.
Early life[edit]
She was born Vilma Koncsics[1] on January 9, 1901[1] to János (later John; 1875-1948) and Katalin (née Ulbert) Koncsics (1880-1947) in Nagydorog, Austria-Hungary. Her father was a bureau chief in Franz Joseph's Austro-Hungarian Empire. Shortly after her birth, her father as a police-segeant was transferred to Budapest, and the family relocated. She had two siblings – an older brother, Gyula (who would later go on to work in Berlin as a writer and cinematographer), and a younger sister, Gisella. After graduation from secondary school, Bánky (as she would later be known) took courses to work as a stenographer, but was offered a role in a film. Acting had been her interest since she was a young girl.
Her first film appearance was in the now lost film, Im Letzten Augenblick, directed by Carl Boese in Germany in 1919. On a trip to Budapest in 1925, Hollywood film producer Samuel Goldwyn discovered and signed her to a contract. Both her mother and father were vehemently against Bánky's acting career as was her fiancé; nonetheless she left for the United States in March 1925, arriving to a great deal of fanfare.[citation needed]
She was hailed as "The Hungarian Rhapsody" and was an immediate hit with American audiences. The New York Times remarked in its review of her first American film, The Dark Angel, that she "is a young person of rare beauty ... so exquisite that one is not in the least surprised that she is never forgotten by Hillary Trent"[2] (the movie's leading male character who decides to allow his family and fiancee to believe him dead rather than place what he perceives as the burden on them of a life caring for a blinded war veteran).
She appeared opposite silent great Rudolph Valentino in The Eagle (1925) and The Son of the Sheik (1926) It is said that Valentino was fascinated by Vilma, and it was he who chose her as the first lady in the films and Ronald Colman in a series of love stories, including The Dark Angel and The Winning of Barbara Worth. It is commonly believed that her thick Hungarian accent cut her career short with the advent of sound; however, she began losing interest in films and wanted to settle down with Rod La Rocque and simply be his wife. By 1928, she had begun announcing her intention to retire in a few years.
Of her twenty-four films, eight exist in their entirety (Hotel Potemkin, Der Zirkuskönig [aka The King of the Circus with Max Linder], The Son of the Sheik, The Eagle, The Winning of Barbara Worth, The Night of Love, A Lady to Love, and The Rebel), and three exist in fragments (Tavaszi szerelem in scattered bits, the first five reels of The Magic Flame, and an incomplete copy of Two Lovers).
Post-acting career[edit]
Her post Hollywood years were spent selling real estate with her husband and playing golf, her favorite sport. In 1981, Bánky established an educational fund, The Banky–La Rocque Foundation,[3] which was still in operation as of 2012.[dubious ][citation needed]
Personal life and death[edit]
She married actor Rod La Rocque in 1927; they remained married until his death in 1969. They had no children.[4]
Vilma Bánky died on March 18, 1991, from cardiopulmonary failure, aged 90, but notice of her death was not made public until the following year. She was reportedly upset that no one had come to visit her in her last years, and directed her lawyer to make no mention of her death.[4][5] Her ashes were scattered at sea where her husband's had been consigned.
For her contribution to the motion picture industry, Vilma Bánky has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame located at 7021 Hollywood Blvd.
